In the most important city in the heart of the red soil, Alice Springs is on both sides of the MacDonald Mountains. Alice Springs is located in a gap in the mountains. Australia has few mountains and rivers, but they are all long-standing. McDonald's Mountains, formed more than 300 million years ago, were once a giant Himalaya mountain range. Billions of years of weathering gradually polished into the remains of today, and the mountains are a cracked canyon. The main peak is only more than 1,500 meters high, but on this pan-like red earth, it can be regarded as a giant peak. From Alice Springs to the west, there is a string of attractions along the MacDonald Mountains, which is a very good day trip route.
